Self Service Site Creation

I have created a web application and attempted to enable self service site creation for SharePoint 2013.  I have tried using powershell and through central admin.  I have set start link to prompt users to create under.. prompt any managed path..., and display custom form at ...

I have set the root site collection to allow everyone to create sites

Yet When a user goes to the site and click new site, I get the working logo, but it never stops.  Let it run 30 minutes, checked logged files and found this error

Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Self-Service Site Creation is not enabled.
    at Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.SelfServiceCreatePage.OnLoad(EventArgs e) 
    at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() 
    at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)

Put all users in farm in ad security group and ensured license was set to enterprise....

Hi, 

According to the error, it seems that you didn't enable Self-Service Site Creation. 

How did you enable Self-Service Site Creation using PowerShell? 

Could you pleast have a try to follow steps in the link below?
